Waiting for the day where an AI app update says “Now with fewer hallucinations” *plural. Found multiple hallucinations this week.

So weird.

A few weeks back I set my phone to only charge to 95%. Until recently overnight it would stop charging at 95%. I noticed this morning or maybe yesterday that it was 100%. I recently updated to 26.5. I wonder if there is a bug causing it to charge to 100% now. The setting inside the battery section in settings is still set at 95%.
